VMware authorization service fails with a 1067

• VMWare authorization service fails

  Hi all, I have a user who seems to have a conflict with another application installed on the computer, which often causes the VMWare authorization Service does not start correctly. When this happens (or if it stops the service manually), it cannot start any machine in VMWare Player, it gets the error message: "error when switching on: the VMWare authorization Service is not running."

  

  However, if I have on my machine, manually stop the VMWare authorization Service, I always start any virtual machine in VMWare Player... so I don't really understand what is the difference between its machines and mine, why it can not start the VMS without this service, but I can't...

  Someone has an idea what actually makes this VMWare authorization Service? Why and when necessary?

  Thank you for advice that you might be able to give me...

  If I'm not mistaking this service is for execution of virtual machines under restricted accounts...

• Customer Web couldn't connect to VMware Lookup Service error with the old server DNS name

  Hello

  I had a Vcenter server named virtualcenter.domain.com (192.168.1.10) with Vcenter 5.1 (with SSO, inventory, Webclient) on a windows 2008 R2 with a MSSQL2012 db.

  I tried to upgrade from 5.1 to 5.5u1 and he failed, Vcenter & Webclient installers have been crashing before you finish update

  So I decided to make a clone of my Vcenter and still have my production work while trying to update.

  My clone has been virtualcenter2.domain.com with a new IP 192.168.1.12

  I uninstalled everything for the webclient service that I had to clean files and registry entries manually, because he didn't find the uninstall program when I was clicking on uninstall.

  Then the installation went well, everything except the webclient service works very well

  When you try to connect to the new vcenter: https://virtualcenter2.domain.com:9443 / vsphere client / I got:
  

  Unable to connect to the VMware Research Service https://VirtualCenter.domain.com:7444/lookupservice/sdk -The SSL certificate verification failed.

  Why the error message is wearing the old DNS name?

  And why when installing, the webclient service to connect to the search service perfectly and then it doesn't work?

  After 1 day, uninstall/reinstall/install, try SSL things and many things, that I found online, the solution is the STUPIDEST thing ever.
  WHY DON'T C:\ProgramData\VMware\ls_url.txt USE VMWARE to provide the URL of the LookupService for the Webclient service? During the installation provide you the URL for registration with SSO, why the hell isn't it written that URL somewhere and use it after?

  And why the hell with all the gel/reinstalling ALL THE COMPONTENT of the Vcenter, I did, this MUTE txt file has not been updated with the new DNS name of my server?

  In any case, my webclient is currently working, but 1 day of work and mental torture do not understand why the hell my client was not working due to a file text fucking, it's depressing.

• VMware vCenter service stops with size of DB SQL errors

  Hello

  We run VMware vCenter 4.1 with 3 ESX hosts and VMs. 50 vCenter runs on Windows 2008 R2, SQL 2005 Express SP2.

  Yesterday, our virtual backup failed, saying: it could not connect to the vCenter agent. When I have looged question, it appeared that he had stopped the vCenter Server service. Upward on the continuation of the investigation, it appears that the SQL Express database had reached 4 GB in size, which is limited, and this caused the vCenter fall service.

  I checked some of the forum posts and have accomplished the following:

  • Define a retention policy of database for tasks and events, it is initially unchecked, but I checked and set it to 90 days in the beginning and now 30 days.
    
  • Found a script on the VMware forum called VCDB_table_cleanup_MSSQL_V4.X.sql that can clean the database. I put it to delete the old data (change of SET @DELETE_DATA = 1) 90 days and he kidnapped 130 000 + lines.
    
  • Performed a narrowing of the database & file shrink on the data file - I was only 9 MB back?
    
  • Performed a narrowing of the database & file shrink on the log file - it right back a little more, about 100 MB.
    
  • Changed the size of the log file of 460 MB to 1024 MB, in database properties > settings files.
    

  However, even after all of the above, when I reboot the server, or stop and start the service vCenter, the following errors are recorded in the application log:

  Due to the size of the database, the query may take time. I suggest that you let run and just be patient.

  Another option is to upgrade to a version of SQL Server 2005/2008 'complete' (see http://kb.vmware.com/kb/7960893), or - where this is an option for you - to migrate towards the currently experimentally supported (starting with vCenter Server 4.1 Update 1) version SQL Express 2008 which supports up to 10 GB per database. (see http://www.vmware.com/pdf/vsphere4/r40/vsp_compatibility_matrix.pdf) Although there are 32 and 64 bit in compatibility matrix, it seems that there are currently problems with 64-bit (see http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1036085)

• BITS service fails with the error code 193: 0xc1

  Program update of Microsoft with Vista SP 2 is a failure with error code 80246008.  Looking at the forum it was suggested that the BITS service does not work so I check this service and it is not executed.  When I try to start it, it fails with the error message 193: 0xc1.

  The only suggestion I have for this fix is to reinstall Vista.  It is probably not necessary?

• The 8 1920 Workstation Setup error - Service VMware authorization Service is not started.

  I get the following error message when you try to install vmwre-workstation-full - 8.0.0 - 471780.exe:

  Error 1920. Authorization of VMware (VMAuthdService) failed to start service.

  Make sure you have sufficient privileges to start system services.

  Here's what I've tried so far:

  -I'm running Windows 7 (X 64) with SP1, 8 core Intel Xeon E5620, 12 GB of memory.

  -Rebooted and tried several times (4)

  -Ran, every time, install as an administrator.

  -Download MD5 sum for the Web site.

  -No other programs are running.

  -VMware workstation 7 has first been uninstalled.

  -J' searched the forums and google but only met similar problems for different products.  None of the workarounds work here.

  Update:
  We had a session short teamviewer and I installed vmx86 and vmauthd-service with sc commands

  Then I put the usual dll but could not continue at this time because we had to finsih the teamviewer session
  next session I'll install and difficulty remains manually

  lesson learned: the WS 8 installer is not yet ready for primetime

• (CSCService) offline files service fails with the error "the system does not have the specified path.

  I have Win7 both 64-bit systems upgraded to Win7 pro in a domain environment (Windows 2003 server).

  Both systems fail to start (CSCService) offline files service with error "error 3: the system cannot find the path specified."
  Best I can tell, it is related to the upgrade process, but so far am unable to identify a work around.
  Someone at - it recommendations?
  Thanks in advance!

  Since it is a new installation, the best way to solve this problem would just reinstall Windows.

  The community forum is more oriented to home users where the Technet forum is aimed more at business users. Due to potential complications with a domain environment, it is why you have been asked to create a new post.

• VMware SRM Reprotect fails with Peer table ID provided in the SRM of entry is incorrect

  I have the following Setup

  Site-a.

  VMware vCenter 5.1 U1

  VMware SRM 5.1.1

  NetApp SRA 2.0.1P2

  FAS3140C - Data ONTAP 8.1.2P4

  Site-B

  VMware vCenter 5.1 U1

  VMware SRM 5.1.1

  NetApp SRA 2.0.1P2

  FAS3140C - Data ONTAP 8.1.2P4

  I created a Protection Group based at the A Site containing a single VM with a single vmdk disk on an NFS volume.

  The NFS volume is synchronous to the Site-B

  I can perform a migration scheduled to Site B, and then reprotect an another planned migration back to Site A, but then when I try to restore the reprotect again so that I am ready for an another Site-B recovery fails in the first step, configure storage for reverse Direction with " " - Failed to reverse the replication for impossible on the devices. SRA command 'prepareReverseReplication' failed. Peer table provided in the entry MRS. ID is incorrect check the newspapers RS to verify the correct peer array ID. "

  I see nothing on the files or the newspaper of SRM server logs to indicate that it is.

  This occurs for each Protection Group, I create this is not isolated to just this one volume.  I also tried with VMFS iSCSI volumes and get exactly the same results.

  If I create a Protection on the Site-B group I can get back to the Site-A and will not restore to fail to Site-B.

  Initially, I look that the issue I saw is that I could do a backspace, but could not perform a second reprotect because the SnapMirrors were left in the State of evil, but now I see that the problem is that I can't make a reprotect from Site A to Site B.

  I completely uninstalled SRM in both places, removed from the SRM database on both sites and started again but always get the same question.

  I actually IBM N series-N6040 controllers and uses IBM Data ONTAP and SRA. brand got a call open with VMware and IBM but not very far.

  Has anyone seen this problem before and got a solution?

  Now, I've identified what causes this problem and can work around it until there is a fix of NetApp.

  The issue was the name of the file on the recovering Site Server had the same name as the file server on the Site protected with a prefix to the subject, which in my case the recovering Site go was named NSERIES01 and the protection of the Site was DRNSERIES01.  Don't forget that I had already performed a failover and restoration for the protection of the Site was my original recovery Site, so yes give it the site protected for this Protection Group is DRNSERIES01 and the recovering Site has NSERIES01 on this.

  Using the task Reprotect is the first step is to call the SRA with the command prepareReverseReplication, which calls reverseReplication.pl, which is trying to verify the SnapMirror is broken.  It gets the status of all the SnapMirrors run on the recovering Site, which in this case NSERIES01.  It then goes through each of them looking for a match of the local-spin-name section: volume-name of the source of the snapmirror, for example for my test group was trying to match NSERIES01:NFS_VMware_Test, at this stage of the source of the SnapMirror is DRNSERIES01:NFS_VMware_Test which is correct, but because the script uses a pattern matching test it corresponds to NSERIES01 : NFS_VMware_Test to DRNSERIES01:NFS_VMware_Test as NSERIES01:NFS_VMware_Test is contained in DRNSERIES01:NFS_VMware_Test. It then checks if the destination of the snapmirror corresponds to the peerArrayID (that is, in this case DRNSERIES01) he does not like the destination, properly, is NSERIES01, and then reports that the peerArrayID is incorrect. If there is no match on the local-spin-name: volume-name of the source of the snapmirror, then he continues to check the destination of the snapmirror, and when it finds a match, it checks if the peerArrayID is the source of the SnapMirror, and if it checks the State of the SnapMirror is broken off.

  I've never touched the issue with the first reprotect because DRNSERIES01:NFS_VMware_Test is not contained in the source of the SnapMirror (NSERIES01:NFS_VMware_Test) and so it will be the next test of verification of the DRNSERIES01:NFS_VMware_Test in the destination of the SnapMirror, that he finds and then checks the DRNSERIES01 against the destination which is also to and finally confirms that the relationship of SnapMirror is broken-off.

  I had changed the volume on DRNSERIES01 a while ago because I thought that the question could have because of the volume being names the same, but I had changed with a suffix of _Repl on the end and so the script was always corresponding to NSERIES01:NFS_VMware_Test to _ReplNSERIES01:NFS_VMware_TestDR.

  I have now set my group of test as follows:

  Protected site

  Name of the file server = NSERIES01

  Volume name = NFS_VMware_Test_HMR

  Recovery site

  File name = DRNSERIES01

  Volume name = NFS_VMware_Test_EWC

  I can now get on the Site recovery, Reprotect, restoration, Reprotect and Fail-over again and continue achieving recoveries and reprotect again and again as often as you can re - save on VHS of Scotch tape!

  If the file on the Site B server had a suffix on its name instead of a prefix, for example, it was named NSERIES01DR, or had a name completely different then I would never hit this bug in the SRA.  I'll wait for NetApp fix SRA.  In the meantime I will be renaming all my volumes on the site of recovery as well as to avoid this problem.

• Departure Orchestrator Server service fails with error 1053

  Hi all

  One of our servers VCO does not start the VMwareOrchestrator service, it returns the above error. He was executed successfully, but the VCO service account password has expired, so I had to update. I checked the following:

  -VCO active service and good password account verified

  -VCO member of that server's local administrator group account service

  -Re-running VCO web config, everything configured and green status

  -Able to connect successfully to basic VCO and vCenter server using the account of Service of VCO

  The other interesting thing is I removed the server.log file, but is not be recreated when I try to restart the service.

  Can anyone advise on what I might be missing with this config? Thank you.

  Locate the orchestrator.bat file and start from the command line.

  Hi sanjeevkode,

  Thank you for visiting the website of Microsoft Windows Vista Community.  As the question you posted typically associated with third party software / application that has its own way of program codes and call the corresponding system resources when installing and running. Therefore, I also suggest you to join the VMware Forums for the best support.

  VMware communities: http://communities.vmware.com/home.jspa

  In the meantime I suggest you try these options / methods

  IMPORTANT NOTE: Microsoft provides this information as a convenience to you. Proposed changes could lead to serious problems. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems would be solved as a result of the suggestions. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

  Option 1: If you go to computer management, and then to the list of Services and find the VMware authorization Service, it appears as stopped? If so, you need to start

  Option 2: Try logging on as an administrator Local host during installation first workstation, rather than you connect with a domain ID

  Option 3: The question can be caused also by your security program such an antivirus or a firewall of Windows /Defender that can have conflicting parameters as to not not to perform certain tasks. I suggest you temporary disable antivirus and firewall and check the result again. You must enable security programs new that had disabled you

  Option 4: The problem could be linked to a local or domain group policy. Make sure that the local account is defined as 'local user __vmware_user__' in the local Administrators group and the permissions of "Log on locally" and "Log on as a service.

  The two parameters are available in the "* Computer Configuration\Windows Settings\Security Settings\Local Policies\User Rights Assignment *" branch of domain group policy or local.

  Let me know if it worked.
  Hope it will be useful.

• VCenter 6 Services fail to start on startup

  Physical server 2012R2 6 VCenter server stopped for hardware maintenance and booted up fine afterwards.

  During the shutdown, this event was logged in the application log:

  The description for event ID 1000 from source VMware VirtualCenter Server can not be found. Either the component that triggers this event is not installed on your local computer or the installation is corrupted. You can install or repair the component on the local computer.

  If the event is on another computer, the display information had to be saved with the event.

  The following information has been included in the event:

  Launch of VMware VirtualCenter shutdown

  the message resource is present, but the message is not in the string/message table

  After starting most of the Vcenter services had not begun, nor could they be started manually.  I it goes back to the first failure recorded in the system log:

  The VMware HTTP Reverse Proxy service stopped with the following special service error:

  Incorrect function.

  I can't start this service manually, it fails with the same error.  All other services fail with an error of dependence.

  This is very frustrating, because we have upgraded this server from Server 2008R2 for the same reason, the service would not start.  When there are Server 2008R2 his running 5.1, we tried the upgrade to 6 but it failed and we couldn't solve it, so we completely removed Vcenter and tried a new install, it didn't until I managed to 'wrong' Setup by changing the Manager of VMware vCenter workflow service to run as local system if not always failed.  We have therefore installed and running, then after the first reboot comes to fail start services!  So we fresh installed Windows 2012R2, installed VCenter without any AV or other "crust" to make sure it would work, which was the case.  Now this 'thing' just continues to fail like that once!

  DNS is fine functiong and the server has survived a number of reboots yesterday, no idea why it does not now!

  James

  Thanks to the Ram from VMware support we figured out that WWW Publishing service has been installed, the value manual start, but has been started.  The VMware Reverse HTTP Proxy service is listening on port 80, so that caused a conflict.

  This was due to an installation of Veeam One, which has been deleted, but left the installed IIS components.  Gahh!

  Required ports for vCenter Server 6.0

  How to change the TCP port for Internet Information services

  Ports: Veeam ONE Deployment Guide

  Article KB of Veeam do not notify IIS components.

  I do not think that this question concerns the problems we had on Server 2008R2, but given that this facility is gone, I can't confirm.

  Solved

  Thank you

• Cannot start the unit because the authorization service is not running - cannot start service

  I'm weirded out. When I try to start the unit on my VM, I get the following message:

  The Virtual Machine cannot be set to Unity mode because:
  -The VMWare authorization Service is not running.

  So, after a little checking, I realize that indeed, the authorization Service is not running on my host. I am trying to launch and get the following message (translated from the french, sorry):

  Windows cannot start the VMWare authorization on your local server. For more information, see Event Viewer. If this isn't a Microsoft service, contact your service provider indicating the service specific error code: 6000002.

  Event Viewer is a little more detailed... But not really useful:

  NONE of these error messages to display more than a few visits on Google, especially not in exact search (with quotes around the exact phrase) mode. I'm at a loss as to what I can operate the unit.

  Dell Optiplex 760, Intel Core 2 Duo E8600 @ 3.33 GHz. 3 GB of Ram.

  VMWare: 7.0.0 build-203739

  Client: Windows XP SP3 (English)

  I have attached my log of vmware just in case. Will be extremely grateful for any help!

  Thank you!

  The only other thing I can think is a reinstallation of the vmx86 service. Rerun the batch previously posted like this, with the extreme detail;

  Tracking Add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\VMware, Inc." /v loglevel /f /t REG_DWORD /d 0 x 36

  "%programfiles%\vmware\vmware workstation\vnetlib.exe" - stop vmx86

  "%programfiles%\vmware\vmware workstation\vnetlib.exe" - uninstall vmx86

  "%programfiles%\vmware\vmware workstation\vnetlib.exe" - install vmx86

  "%programfiles%\vmware\vmware workstation\vnetlib.exe" - beginning vmx86

  Tracking Add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\VMware, Inc." /v loglevel /f /t REG_DWORD /d 0 x 3

  and repeat once more for authd thereafter;

  Tracking Add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\VMware, Inc." /v loglevel /f /t REG_DWORD /d 0 x 36

  "%programfiles%\vmware\vmware workstation\vnetlib.exe" - stop authd

  "%programfiles%\vmware\vmware workstation\vnetlib.exe" - uninstall authd

  "%programfiles%\vmware\vmware workstation\vnetlib.exe" - install authd

  "%programfiles%\vmware\vmware workstation\vnetlib.exe" - beginning authd

  Tracking Add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\VMware, Inc." /v loglevel /f /t REG_DWORD /d 0 x 3

  If this does not help I suggest you reinstall workstation completely from your own account. Don't forget to note your serial number if your IT Department has already given it you.

  BTW, it might be that your group policy to prevent something. Check with your IT, if others have the same problem.

• The VMware VirtualCenter Server service stopped with the error service special 2 (0x2).

  I tried all listed in other postings, but our VSphere 4 server resides on a SQL server server.

  I tested the connection odbc with the SA password and it works, it rebooted several times now, tried to stop all services and bringing up one at a time, but whenever a dependency is not. I get this error in the system log, the VMware VirtualCenter Server service stopped with the error service special 2 (0x2).

  And

  VMware VirtualCenter Management Web Services service depends on the VMware VirtualCenter Server service which failed to start because of the following error:

  The service has returned a service-specific error code.

  Application log says this

  The description for event ID 1000 from source VMware VirtualCenter Server can not be found. Either the component that triggers this event is not installed on your local computer or the installation is corrupted. You can install or repair the component on the local computer.

  If the event is on another computer, the display information had to be saved with the event.

  The following information has been included in the event:

  Could not initialize the VMware VirtualCenter. Closing...

  the message resource is present, but the message is not in the string/message table

  I don't know how to fix it. It was working fine yesterday. Nothing has changed. Or has anyone experience this problem and have a solution?

  see if that helps
